The Action Is Unmatched
Hawkins braces for its ultimate showdown, with the gang facing off against Vecna and the Mind Flayer. Can they save their town—and themselves? Only time will tell. New faces add to the drama, but if you remember anything from the past seasons, it gets better, chillier, emotional, and nostalgic.

This Reboot Brings Back
Matt Murdock’s gritty story as the blind lawyer-turned-vigilante facing new enemies. Charlie Cox will still take up his role. Hence, fans should expect intense action sequences. But, it gets darker and goes into uncharted territory with Daredevil’s moral struggles and evolving relationships.
Yellowjackets Season 3
Come Valentine's Day this year, February 14, 2025, The Wilderness calls again in Yellowjackets Season 3 premiering on Showtime.

What sets this show apart is its focus on the human side of law enforcement. Unlike the typical story, each episode digs into ethical dilemmas the two rookies go through day after day. If you would like to see just how crazy being a newbie cop is, line this up.
The Pitt
The term “Pitt” in this title is such a clever name. It could be a short form of Pittsburgh or just insinuating the series acts like a busy scene. Nonetheless, premiering January 2025 on Max, this gritty drama explores crime, corruption, medicine, and survival in a city torn by its past.
What’s The Pitt’s Special Appeal?
It’s obvious; it is the storytelling and powerful performances. Resilience and redemption themes steal the show through and through, and it runs deep. If you found The Wire your cup of tea, you’ll be glad we introduced The Pitt. This is a fitting pick, and you are welcome.
Lockerbie: A Search for Truth
Peacock’s Lockerbie: A Search for Truth is the right amount of British drama series fitting a fall list. It premiered on January 2, 2025, meaning you could start early. If by Fall, you have not yet dived into the tragic 1988 Pan Am Flight 103 incident, please do.

American Primeval
Here is yet another January release that could very well fit into your September watchlist. This show is a reimagination of the untamed frontier of 19th-century America.
